I hate bermuda grass. I tried your technique before, turning the soil
and removing all pieces. Then repeat. Over and over. But like you
said, it comes back at the first sign of water. I found when digging a
hole that the roots go down 2 feet or more. I wonder if I will ever
win. It is the one thing I hate about my garden.
